We have decided to wait until my SO is done with school to get engaged. He should be done sometime by the end of this yr or early next yr (He won't tell me to keep the engagement a suprise. lol )

We're choosing a DW to keep the guest list small & the costs down without sacrifcing the wedding of my dreams. :-) I still want a very classy, elegant wedding. And don't want to scrimp on the things most important to me like photography, dress, hair, makeup, etc.

We already have a date picked out so the longer I wait until he proposes, the less amount of time I will have to sort everything out. (I'm notoriously indecisive lol )

With all this in mind, I have decided to stop waiting for the proposal & start planning now to allow more time for saving, enough notice to the loved ones I really want there and to minimize the stress once I am engaged.

Although this is my first post, I have been lurking for 2 wks now, scouring this site and thanks to BDW, I already have a pretty good idea of the destination, the photographer, & possible resorts!!
